I'm treating this forum like my personal blog

It distracts from what individuals are trying to accomplish when they take the time to assist posters.

If someone wants to highlight the warranty issue, that can be done when the OP's problem is resolved. Also, a private message can be sent as a follow-up.

You're treating this forum like your own personal little blog, btw. It's not, it's a community where everyones opinion counts equally.

Here's hoping things work out for the OP.

If others feel this way about my interaction here, please express your thoughts. If Rock isn't alone in his/her belief, I'll be more than happy to fade into the sunset.

This thread is little more than a blatant call for massive ego-stroking and more karma. We all know you've aided a lot of people here.

SCION · 01-03-2011, 11:55 AM

I've been holding my tongue with you and will continue to do so. I really wish I could express my thoughts to you face-to-face which would put an end to this tit-for-tat between us.

My time is valuable and I enjoy helping others. If people feel the way you do, then I'll go elsewhere. People can continue to send me a private message, but I will no longer seek out those who need help and publicly provide assistance.

RockdaMan · 01-03-2011, 11:58 AM

This would be better handled via PM. Also, I don't consider there to be any tit-for-tat between us.

Edit: My words above may not seem to make sense now since she has edited her post to tone down the inflammatory material.

SCION · 01-03-2011, 12:02 PM

If I can't say what I want to, to your face, I'm not saying it. There's no need for a PM.

Don't let the da'man bring you down Scion.......You're awesome.....

And if you have a personal blog....please direct me to it.....

There's always a joker in the bunch

SCION · 01-03-2011, 12:09 PM

I feel sorry for you Rock. There must be a void in your life.

cutterjohn42 · 01-03-2011, 12:11 PM

does he even own a NC? I'd say if not, then he'd better scurry back to the Kindle clubhouse.

(Had the same problem @ slatedroid when we got the Augen Gentouch78 and a guy kept creeping in from the Pandigital Novel forums to make various snide remarks, and again at xda with Samsung Galaxy Tab owners creeping into the Viewsonic gTablet forums to do the same, although in a slightly more subtle fashion. In the former case I believe it was just because of the brief burst of popularity of the GT & the latter just Tab owners insecure in their purchase of a grossly overpriced device.)

...and for reference here is a link to the thread in which this originated... ahhh... intarwebz dramaz...

I wish there was an ignore button available at this site. There have been a few people I would happily employ it with. You are not one of them.

I would suggest that you both take deep breaths when you see the other post and ask yourself if you really need to respond. Walking away can be good for the soul.

For the record I have no clue what the issue is because I only skim the Nook boards. I have seen you both post in other areas. Scion, I have never had a problem with your posts. Rock's post have not made enough of an impression for me to say one way or the other.
